Hi!

I noticed pidgin needed testing. I have updates-testing installed.

You should still see the new pidgin, however. Have you given a
"yum clean metadata ; yum list pidgin libpurple" a try?

When trying to install pidgin I get a dependency error preventing me to
install it though:
Error: Package: pidgin-2.10.0-3.fc16.i686 (fedora)
             Requires: libpurple(x86-32) = 2.10.0-3.fc16
             Installed: libpurple-2.10.1-1.fc16.i686 (@updates-testing)
                 libpurple(x86-32) = 2.10.1-1.fc16
             Available: libpurple-2.10.0-3.fc16.i686 (fedora)
                 libpurple(x86-32) = 2.10.0-3.fc16

Apparently libpurple is too new on updates-testing. Can someone tip me
to a way to resolve this issue? Thank you.

Resources you want to learn about:

  * The Fedora Updates System "bodhi"
    https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates

  * Search for "pidgin":
    https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/pidgin

The current test-update of "pidgin" is on its way to "stable" already.
The libpurple you've installed belongs to the same package set (it's built
from the same pidgin src.rpm even).

Meanwhile, the packages should still be available in the updates-testing
repo.

Thank you for the pointers. Cleaning the metadata didn't do the trick and the list command gives me this:
Installed Packages
libpurple.i686 2.10.1-1.fc16 @updates-testing
Available Packages
pidgin.i686                     2.10.0-3.fc16                   fedora

I'll read the links and confirm whether I managed to install pidgin or not right after.

Thank you.

Fred
